I will attempt to make it grow to my previously announced specs.
list is now resizable
now using the standard SCROLLER. I'm not sure if this is a good approach 
for RebGUI...
now supports vertical scrolling
some limited support of images too

it's the same routine as I normally use... I might be able to get 
rid of some calculations that are done during draw, when scrolling...
I've turned off the truncate function. did that help?

not sure ... but concentrate upon engine ... there will be place 
to optimise later ...

got rid of a few calculations during scrolling now.
sorting works now. click the button in the upper right corner to 
reset sorting

Can you get multi-line rows ??
Henrik

[3586x4]
probably :-) each row is a layout that can be defined by the user
but the size of a row isn't adapted to the text contents yet
text filtering works now. by entering a string in the field, the 
string will be searched through all values in all columns and only 
display rows with the string in it. currently only searches all columns.
sorting also works after filtering

it suffers one typical problem - at first run, the grid is unsorted 
... once you sort it, you can't "desort" it :-)

click the button in the upper right corner
(should be marked a bit clearer, I know)

There should be at least three states for sort  [ascending, descending 
and unsorted]

Nice! Maybe it would be better to have situation similar to Lotus 
Notes grid? They show thin arrow, if the column is sortable (not 
all are). Then you can sort it up and down and third click deactivates 
sorting. It is kind of natural ...
:-) Jaime was faster :-)

I'll take a look at that
pekr, which kinds of rows can't be sorted?
Pekr

well, not in our case. But with some older db systems, like xbase 
in DOS, we just had this facility. Not all columns were indexed. 
Sorting non indexed columns was not allowed ...

tristate sorting now available. can be turned off with the TRI-STATE-SORT 
variable.
I will continue tomorrow... bedtime for me

Is there some gotcha with resizing a scroller ?

Scroller/size: newsize show scroller doesn't work.

associated with Vid gadgets, or is it .. read the source time ?

back again.... fixed a bug where resize didn't work during filtering 
and incorrect amount of results when filtering and turning off sorting
graham: it seems the convention is so that when you have a group 
of faces that need to be resized (such as the scroller), you use 
a RESIZE function rather than just a variable.
the filter works on multiple strings and is case insensitive. the 
purpose is to let you very quickly search for things without resorting 
to regular expressions or wildcards, with as few keypunches as possible. 
try entering "shoe" first. then "shoe very". "shoevery" won't produce 
a result

Henrik, that makes sense.
Now, how to change the font size of the font used in an area widget 
?
area/font/size: newsize .. doesn't do it.

new version 0.0.5 uploaded.

single selecting works now.
standard font made a bit smaller.

selecting requires the use of a new face called LIST-TEXT with a 
FEEL that allows for mouse over and single/double clicking in the 
list.
single-click action is stored as a block in LST-ACT
double-click action is stored as a block in DBL-LST-ACT

Demo can be found at http://hmkdesign.dk/rebol/list-view3.r
0.0.6 uploaded... minor bugfix to keep the selected persistent even 
when sorting and filtered.
0.0.7 uploaded...

This one is released under the BSD license.

Changes:
      New: Added /force refinement to UPDATE

      Fix: Fields are rendered now, when filtering with fewer results than 
      the size of the list view.
      New: List now can have an edge of any size.
      New: ALT-LST-ACT action for right click actions.
      New: If HDR-COLS is empty, the header is now not drawn.
